Daily Routines & Handwaved CR Meme, VOLUME 2

[light_mischief]

Handwaved CR Meme

The passengers have been living on this ship for a while now, and it's likely that they've fallen into certain habits and routines. Little things have become part of their day, from lunch dates with friends, to quiet nights in the library, or long-standing blood feuds. Even the newest passengers have likely found themselves some common haunts and familiar faces. This is a meme to talk about, flesh out, and collaborate on some of those behind-the-scenes moments and routines!

1. Post a comment with your character's name & cabin number in the header, and give us an idea of what sort of things they get up to around the ship! Be as detailed or as vague as you'd like.
2. Talk about what kind of handwaved CR you can inspire! Is your character the type to stop and chat with friends on the promenade? Are they consistently the highest score on multiple arcade cabinets? IDK, you tell me!
3. When you look at other characters' routines, you might notice some moments that line up! Even if your characters are total strangers, they might see each other at the buffet every day, or maybe they're unwittingly competing for the high score on DDR. And close CR might mean weekly dinners, book clubs, sparring sessions every morning... like I said, this is where you shine!!
4. This is also a good chance to handwave characters exchanging contact information, generating some more inbox threads!

TLDR: write about your character's life on the ship and then compare notes with other people, find CR, ???, profit

(Last meme, for those who might need it!)

Honoria Crabb, Cabin 129

[pointofhonoria]

~ Since October, Crabb's been a little more restless and gravitating to places with people more. She's still kinda shit at starting up a normal conversation out of the blue, but she's more likely to try than before.
~ She would attend meetings aimed at the previously possessed, I just ran out of tag-out energy around the time that went up, so any other possessed, assume you saw her there at least!
~ Has been lingering around Photos at Sea a lot this month, trying to decide if she's ready to brave looking at photos from October.
~ Regularly works out in Calgona, tends to focus on the punching bag and also strength stuff; she's pretty damn strong, honestly, it's just not obvious under layers of clothes. Gets her running in on the sports deck in the mornings.
~ Will also attend fight club when it's on, sometimes. She is almost solely a hand-to-hand brawler but she doesn't have terrible aim either. Not trained, very self-taught, though her technique's getting a bit tighter with time here since she's actually practicing more often and has Erin training with her.
~ Frequents Tauva. She's not a smoker herself, but she's used to people smoking around her and she likes the whiskeys there. Sits around and drinks, but also scribbling in a notebook about everything from theories and records about the ship, to things back home, to just... random thoughts.
~ Swings by Hurikane mostly when Johnny's there mixing drinks, but you still might have seen her around.
~ Mostly eats at the buffet, but occasionally gets something at the Drunken Sailor. Sometimes sits in Sand Dollars to get coffee. Sits around the lounge watching folks sometimes, especially around excursion sign-ups when those come around.
~ Goes through the books in the library occasionally, not really to read for their own sake but to try and get a sense of more modern media for the sake of understanding the Captain's shit. Might enjoy some like, mystery/crime/whatever books for their own sake but there's equal odds she gets frustrated at bad ones. She also now has a pile of lesbian romance novels that you might very very occasionally catch her with.
~ Wandering. Whenever she's not doing something specific, she's probably going to be wandering because staying still sucks. Less frequently these days, she needs more naps to make up for crappy sleep, but still.
~ Occasionally, the life-size plushie she got of a little red French bulldog is with her when she's somewhere taking notes. Give her weird looks at your own peril, she might've called you on it if you did.
~ Crabb absolutely loves to just sit and throw thoughts back and forth with someone, whether about the boat or just anything. Gotta keep the brain active.
~ Introduces herself as Honoria Crabb, but immediately says everyone just calls her Crabb.
~ Appearance wise, she continues to lean more and more into butch styles. She has flannels now, and is generally wearing button-ups with sensible trousers, but sometimes goes as far as casual suits.
~ Is dating the woman (Erin) the Captain called a slaver in front of god and everyone at the game show, and was visibly comforting her in the aftermath. She isn't huge on PDA but you might have seen that and might see them around sometimes

Karkat loves loves loves romance novels. Though he’s a bit of a snob about it and prefers troll romance to human romance. But he would absolutely strike up a conversation if he saw her reading romance.

Don't mind me getting back to this way late..... but lmao Crabb's very new to romances on account of being handed a bunch by a regain and will be needlessly embarrassed having attention drawn to it so. amazing

[angrycrabnoises]

Oh nooo lmao

Yeah he would not notice how embarrassed she is, he’d just start monologuing
